Competitions Gamenight:- Carlton v St. Kilda

[Alpha1]

[pickman]

Order in the universe has been restored

And may it not take another 10-years to beat those bastards again

 

[dumb]

tore strips off them, sweet.

we had the best of the umps, but that can't account for the whipping we dished out.

 

[sticks74]

Fantastic win tonight!
Ran hard and showed up their lack of pace...

Judd is back to his best
JR was sensational
Carrots did the job on Del Santo
Hoops the job on fisher!

Great effort by the coaching staff to plan this win....

 

[Blue Bawls]

All credit to Ratten and the Blues tonight great game plan, now if only we play like this every week.

Yep, completely ambushed them, and backed it up with defensive pressure. Back in 2007, we'd let that free flow turn into a shootout, but we wrapped up the Saints' key players (Carrots and Hoops played blinders) and left them clueless.

Tackled brilliantly and got numbers to the ball, sensational stuff from the Three Amigos whose defensive pressure was as significant as their scoring firepower.

Russell, Jamison, Judd, Scotland and Johnson were fantastic as well.

Awesome brand of footy and as Alpha says, one I hope will set a benchmark.

GO BLUES!

AJ played on maggot Milne. Kept him pretty quite all night, but he (AJ) copped an accidental kick in the mouth from on of our own players in the third quarter.

 

[Sin City]

We're above Brisbane

 

[mediumsizered]

We're above Brisbane

In so many ways.

 

[Alpha1]

Brisbane are on a steep slope down hill, maybe the Fev effect?

 

[Mister Carlton]

Fevwho!?!?!?

 

[krayfesh]

Nice interview by Yarran. Equal parts honesty and confidence with a dash of arrogance.

He's fastest. We're great.

 

[Sin City]

He is deceptively quick. Reminds me of McLeod the way he's cruising along but still putting distance between himself and his opponent.

 

[Dramoth]

Fevwho!?!?!?

Who gives a toss about our ex-FF!!!

Where are the goals coming from???

I am loving Setanta and his 3 little helpers... 12 goals between them all in a dominant display of power.

 

[ESKIE]

JR with 35 posies
This bloke has really stepped up this year. Great to see.

Well yeh...Macavaney and Commetti were saying this guy is th emost improved in th AFL at present, and now he;s pushing for all Australian.... can u believe that ha ha ha love it

How was Garlett's run from the wing to give Waite his 4th...

The Aint's guy in the background was seriously struggling once the pedal hit the metal.

 

[parrot]

I enjoyed that.

I don't think I've ever seen such a dominant small forward display. Eddie, Garlett and Yarran are deadly.

 

[Ryan Dixon Webb]

Forward line is looking great. Waite will be better for the run tonight, really great having two competent tall boys up front.

Wasn't really impressed with Thornton or Johnson's games. Hopefully Bower isn't too far away, would also be good to see someone like Austin, Davies or O'Keeffe come into the side a bit later in the season once they hit some form, to sure up the defence.

 

[Azul]

Still a young man finding his way, done a few nice things though.

I know we chip in around in junk time but it's the second time White has taken 10 marks in a game.

After last week's goal, does anyone else think he could slot in as a decoy forward pocket once we get Bower and Austin back? That'd free up Waite to roam the wing.

some of white's marks were waite-esque, chopping out some leads. waite kicked 4... putting the players where you suggest would be playing them where neither would have spent hardly any time at all this year. not only that but with displays such as tonights where we ran through the middle anyway there's no need to free up waite to the middle. he'd be out of the forward line then watching the mids run past him. i'd rather white take waite's chop-role (he's fairly clean by foot and shows willingness to attack... just needs to get rid of it quicker) and leave waite as a forward who takes some serious minding.

 

[Andronicus]

was henderson a late withdrawal or never going to play?

Wasnt going to play... needs a couple of weeks in the Bullants to get his confidence back into his game and he will return
